Uh, TR, I'd be edgy about that too. It's like they're telling you how to feel without really even talking to you about it or meeting him. They're projecting their hang ups on you. It may be time to find other friends to talk to about dating
I feel like my body is falling apart. My left knee injury, I injured my rotator cuff on the right side, and now I have this weird pain in my right thigh. wtf
Thank you peppermint and seabitch and cuddlyevil. I know that was kind of heavy for a randoms so I DD'd, I just need to get it out because I can't tell anyone in real life that without getting prayer requested for me at church or something.

I'm over Tuesday!
I am struggling to get motivated at work. My company is not doing great so there have been tons of layoff in the last couple weeks, and more to come. It is just so depressing to see people I like lose their jobs and my work load just increases. I know I should be thankful for a job, etc., but it just hard to come to work when it's such a depressing, stressful place.
The east coast needs to send some of their winter weather our way! It has been ridiculously warm here, in the high 40s every day. While I love the warm weather, I want some snow for skiing!

TR I totally understand. I feel like everyone has an opinion about my dating life. I have a couple really good friends that think I should still be mourning my marriage and not dating. I kind of understand their concern but at the same time if I tell them I ready then they should believe me. They don't live close and don't see how I am handling everything on a daily basis.
Hey WinterIsComing, long time no speak, good to see your face, or your dogs face in your sig rather! Going through the layoff process is the hardest. Hang tough.
And I totally hear you on the snow, I just want to ride my snowmobile. Meow!
I think blogging is a great idea, abcdefu! I always feel better when I type out my thoughts and can process them that way. And it's great to have a record of any time in your life.
You guys, I started watching American Horror Story on Netflix a few days ago. I heard that the second season was a fan favorite so that's where I started. Big mistake. Big. Huge. Let me preface this with the fact that I tend to love any scary stories except anything pertaining to possession thanks to a deeply religiously fucked up childhood (southern baptist ministers daughter over here). It fucks with my head even though I realize science is like "yeah, no, Lyss. This is not a thing." I couldn't sleep last night. I couldn't even turn the lights off. . The whole season so far seems to revolve around possession. It's called Asylum. I thought it would be people who are crazy, not demon possessed.
Try season 1, that was more of a traditional ghost story. I'm with you on the rest of it. I used to love scary movies, until I realized how much sleep I was missing out on because they freaked me the fuck out. I've always hated devil movies, though. While I still watch American Horror Story, I don't really like to watch scary movies any more.
Thank you! What about seasons 3 and 4? Do I have to worry about demon possession if I watch those?

also, in WTF news...during my date last night, ex h texted me asking to meet up for coffee. what the ever loving hell. he either a) is going to tell me he's engaged, b) ask to no longer pay for half of our dog's vet bills, or c) it's part of his ongoing recovery to make amends and maybe he's going to do that. who knows. either way, it was weird. so was the timing.

Wtf is up with that? Are you going to meet him/talk to him?
abcdefu I think blogging is a great idea, I started writing in a journal this year every night before bed and have found it super helpful.
peppermint yay for good first dates and even bigger yay for tall guys with beards and tattoos. Very weird timing about the text from xh, he didn't say what he wanted?
@missva sorry for your loss, lots of thoughts your way.
TR I am sorry, its always a sucky feeling when you have friends and feel like you can't be completely open/honest with them about things. All of my closest friends are over 1k miles away and we see each other rarely, which can makes things even harder.
I probably could have made it to work even though the roads were bad. I got up and debated, but ended up saying the hell with it because there was still a driving ban and public transit was closed so I figured the conditions would suck. We shoveled, I'm making chicken tacos on the crockpot and watching tv. My hairdryer died almost as soon as I turned it on. I do not have a back up and I'm not going out today. why did it have to die today of all days??! It's cold!!!
I've been living in my house for two and a half weeks now, and today I'm rearranging the living room for like the third time. This time will hopefully be the last! I hate feeling unsettled, and with the current arrangement I can't relax in the living room. Blerg.
Also I have to catch up on laundry today. This place doesn't have w/d hookups, so I have to go to a laundromat to wash anything. Needless to say, I haven't done laundry since I moved in. I'm down to my last set of comfies. I CANNOT RUN OUT OF COMFIES.
I swear nothing is ever easy! I ran out of my pain medication and needed to get my antibiotics filled. Well my stupid pharmacy ran out of my pain meds and didn't get a delivery in because of the blizzard. So my mom had to drive me (I can't drive due to meds and pain) all over the place for find a pharmacy with the meds. I know it's not my pharmacy's fault they ran out; i was just annoyed!
WinterIsComing - I'm so glad you are back! I missed your chocolate lab's cute face!

blcuddlyevillyssbobiss, Command, B613, command, B613, and @boing - no, he didn't say what he wanted, even when i asked him what it was about. i told him we could meet up, as we're cordial, but he didn't set a date or anything. we'll see if it even happens. strange, nonetheless.
in good news, date from last night has been texting me all day. yay!

Okay, TR-I think you are beautiful, amazing, and totally fun! I think your friends' concerns are that this guy likes you more than you like him. He said something nice, and they are worried you will break his little heart. Or that you will settle down so too soon? But from both quips it SOUNDS more like they are concerned he is becoming attached and you aren't. YOU know your date-ship better than anyone. I think as long as you are HONEST with him (IE-he KNOWS you are dating other people), all is good. I DO understand their concern because I have totally been the girl OMG in LOVE with a guy, who it turned out was dating everything in the tri-state area. So, it's a bit them projecting, a bit concern for the guy. I DON'T think it was saying anything negative about you AT ALL.
